Intro:  
City of Gubbio, God has let this wolf kill you 
And lay fear upon you because of your sin. 
Be converted then beloved of God 
And do penance for your sins. 
And God will free you from this wolf today 
And hell tomorrow, and hell tomorrow 
 
Chorus:  
St. Francis made the sign of the cross 
And the wolf laid his ears down flat 
Then he put his paw in his hand 
A sign of peace, the best a wolf could do 
To promise not to kill their children 
 
Lyrics: 
Brother Wolf why are you frightening this town 
Killing their chickens and chasing their dogs around 
Brother Wolf why are you killing these people 
You know that we are made in Gods image 
I want to make peace with you and this town 
 
Brother Wolf is there no food for you? 
These people will feed you 
The dogs wont bark at you anymore 
Brother Wolf kept his promise with him 
St Francis led the wolf into town 
And asked him to show them the sign 
 
Brother Wolf went from house to house 
The people gave him food every day 
After two years of living together 
Brother Wolf died of old age 
The people of Gubbio mourned 
 and remembered St Francis’ virtue
